Dog fighting is horrible, but is it worse than how animals are treated in food processing plants?
With the recent trouble with Michael Vick and his involvement in dog fighting rings, the subject of animal cruelty is on everyone's minds as of late. But the great unspoken is how animals such as pigs, cows, ducks, and chickens are treated in your basic food processing plants; from cows' throats being slashed, to ducks being forcefed with a tube down their throat. If dog fighting is a felony offense, then why do major food processing corporations continue to administer their own brand of animal cruelty? Who decided that dogs have more rights than other animals?
If your response is to point out the fact that animals in food processing plants are for food, and therefore the treatment is acceptable, I then ask you this: If dogs were considered food, would it then be acceptable?

Answer:
well I'm sure that if the animals at the food processing plant were treated that why as a form of entertainment it wouldn't happen. they did this for entertainment not to provide the population with food.
add: if we ate dogs in this country then they way they processed the food would be acceptable. they are not being killed for ENTERTAINMENT, that would be wrong.
as for the other answerer who said Vick is being set upon because he is a celebrity, that's just absurd. as a celebrity he should know he's in the spotlight and being in that spotlight was a surety he would get caught. we had a fighting ring broke up where i am a few months ago and there was a big uprising of animal lovers for that, and all those people were, were a bunch of dumb crack heads, dope dealers, and welfare recipients. so you can drop the "he's a celebrity and that's why he's getting in trouble" BS.
